Lovely London couple Tara & Alex were a joy to meet and work with for their wedding photography, Warwickshire.
Wedding photography Warwickshire
They selected the beautiful Bell Tower at Ettington Park Hotel for their outdoor wedding ceremony. We prayed for good weather or at least dry! Ettington Park is a spectacular neo-Gothic mansion situated six miles from Stratford-upon-Avon in the picturesque Stour Valley. A wonderful venue for wedding photography Warwickshire.
Gorgeous high crumbling arches frame the right-hand side of this outdoor venue with the Norman chapel to the left. This makes for an intimate wedding setting in the middle section, private and lovely. The couple stood facing the Bell tower and whispered their vows together. It was magical. It is a stunning venue for wedding photography Warwickshire. The Victorian Garden suite has period features large gothic windows for masses of natural light which allows for the best of photos, pre-ceremony. There are some iconic shots of Tara getting into her dress; contrasty, arty and stylish. Tara was easy to photograph. She had a real innocence and natural beauty about her, she seemed totally unaware of how beautiful she actually was. She was more concerned in keeping everybody happy and wanted everyone to have a great day.
The day was clear and sunny which made for fantastic dreamy pastel water-colour photography and fine art style capture. A lovely intimate ceremony where the couple signed their vows and kissed under the Bell Tower. They drank champagne to guests throwing confetti and with Tara, her scallop lace veil trailing, walked the grounds and rolling green fields with new husband Alex. We photographed the Orangery arches, mansion house, sun-filled terraces and relaxing wedding guests. A perfect day summer’s day for wedding photography.
The wedding breakfast was held in Ettington’s most haunted Long Gallery and bubbles provided fun shots during speeches.
